August was a busy month for LMA. Check out this video showcasing the dredging work your lake association just performed on the 3rd channel. An area that was nearly impassable is now easily accessed for 25+ homeowners. Great success for Manitou! Dredging Video

You may have noticed mobilization of a barge and giant excavator onto Ford's Court this past week. Dredging of the inlet to the 3rd channel is set to begin next week. The spoils and sediment material will be removed from the lake and put on the barge then transported to the empty lot owned by Ed Lanuti at 2101 Ford’s Court where a second excavator will offload the material from the barge into a sealed truck to be hauled offsite. This process will continue until 1889 cubic yards of material has been removed. This will leave the nearly impassable channel 3.5’ deep by 35’ wide and 300’ long! Please be patient and avoid this area while contractors are working, if possible. Thank you LMA for continuing to improve our wonderful lake.

Mark Shoop and Sarah Cotner were grand prize winners of $5000 each and Jeff Klinkhamer, Dave Ellenwood, Kenny Anderson, Kay Murhling and the Garrison Family each won $1000.
